    Default MkII workshop manual

    Hi

    As I have just got my MA61 - I'm wondering if this workshop manual would be worth getting?

    http://cgi.ebay.com.au/TOYOTA-CELICA...QQcmdZViewItem

    Anyone else got something like this? Any good?

    Thanks
    David.

    I have both a Haynes and Toyota TSRM for my MK2. The Haynes is pretty crap compared to the real deal so to speak. As JCMF said, it's on the internet:

    http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/library/TSRM_MKII/

    Server appears to be down at the moment.

    Still, nothing beats having a book when you are trying to fix stuff. I hate having to go print the pages I think I'll need prior to doing anywork.

    i snaffled a copy of the <http://www.cygnusx1.net/> site a while ago - all 200Mb of it. If someone has some hosting space i can ftp it there (at a moderate speed). PM me a username/pwd if needed.

    Web Devil - but it was a macinosh application.... took hours (1st attempt crashed midway)to grab and i was concerned that the guys hosting service might block me for making so many http connections ...

    it's a handy reference as HTML - means you can use it with your tuning laptop, use any web browser to navigate thru it.

    That is true but everything also on any forum should not be taken seriously unless countless hours have been used for research on the person who is seeking the question. It's much of a muchness. All I recommending is looking on there as there has been things that have not been discussed on here.

    Cheers.
